Does anyone know how to enter a phone number from your phone book into an sms on a t68i?

In options there's 'insert item' but that only has the things relevent to mms like pictures and sounds, nothing about numbers.

go to phone book> manage contact> send contact then select the contact you want to send then send via SMS.

i dont know if there is another way to add a number to an SMS, but you can just send the contact this way.

In case your still confused you can just write the message & at the point you are asked to enter a number you just joystick left, then click a couple of times then scroll to the contact you want to send to. then click the joystick.

It's one of the features I miss from Nokia, the only way is to send it as a contact/business card or try and remember the number. :-D

@pachy- i think you have misread the question, you cannot insert a number from the phone book into the text of an sms like you could with nokia/sony phones.

OH, i`m sorry guys, i did missread it, but surely you could cut & paste it, not many people are aware you can do that.
Instructions are on esato as to how to cut & paste on a t68.
As i have sold mine.

@georgied You'd probably gain a little respect by spelling our names correctly.

You could do the cut and paste stint when editing the contact info in an address book entry, and not when you want to insert a certain contact's number in the sms you are composing. Same as you guys, this is the sole feature that I truly greatly miss from my nokia.
